Getting There
Pune Airport (PNQ) does not have a non-stop flight to Malé — most Pune travellers reach the Maldives via Mumbai (BOM, around 1 hour by domestic flight or about 3 hours by road), which has direct flights to Malé in around 3h 45m on IndiGo and Air India. Bengaluru (BLR) is a useful alternative connection.
